DIAZ-MORAN, Sira  e  FERNANDEZ-TERUEL, Alberto. Integration and interaction between pharmacological and psychological treatments of addiction: a review. Anal. Psicol. [online]. 2013, vol.29, n.1, pp.54-65. ISSN 1695-2294.  https://dx.doi.org/10.6018/analesps.29.1.135131.

The main therapies applied to treat substance abuse or addictions are pharmacotherapy and psychological therapies, with few interventions that combine these two types of therapies. The aim of the present study is to review and to summarize the main results of research devoted to evaluate the effectiveness of the combined action of these therapies, as compared to the effectiveness of each type of treatment administered alone. The results show that the combined application of pharmacological and psychological treatments has a greater therapeutic effect and relapse prevention, thus overcoming some of the limitations of these two types of treatments when administrated alone.

Palavras-chave : Drug addiction; pharmacotherapy; psychological therapies; combination treatments; therapeutic efficacy; relapse prevention.
